Hello DoctorWho42, I hope that does not just happen to me. ☺ Regards --Serols (talk) 11:37, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Did you get my ping?

Hey, the "thanks" are starting to creep me out a little; I get that a Doctor Who fan who appreciated my commenting on the title of an article he/she was interested in might check my contribs and be amused by the concept of Japanese being descended from the Lost Ten Tribes (it is an inherently amusing concept), but if you just WP:THANK me a whole lot and don't actually respond when the edits you thanked me for were coming under fire and I ask you to, it comes across a little like you are using the function ironically, which is generally considered an abuse. (And honestly this makes it look a lot like you are thanking everyone for everything they right without necessarily doing so either sincerely or ironically.) I am still assuming good faith here, but I'd really appreciate a comment in words. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 01:51, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

ya, sure. I thank everyone. cheers~-🐦Do☭torWho42 (⭐) 01:56, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Um....

Would you mind explaining this? Also, how or why you thanked me for an edit I made literally seven seconds after I had made it? It wasn't even on my own talk page, and as near as I can tell has absolutely nothing to do with you. Primefac (talk) 02:14, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

are their guidelines to thanking? I can look them up if it would help. I mostly just thank whoever's edits pop up on my watchlist before they disappear altogether.-🐦Do☭torWho42 (⭐) 02:18, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Yes, there are. WP:THANK section "What the feature is not" says that you shouldn't just be spamming thanks. I do not need to be pinged every time you see an edit of mine pop up. It becomes spam and borders on disruptive activity. There is zero reason to thank every person for every edit they make, and I ask you to please consider ceasing this activity in the future. Primefac (talk) 02:22, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

fair enough. i won't use the thank feature then.-🐦Do☭torWho42 (⭐) 02:23, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Agreed with Primefac. I initially assumed, based on your username, that you had encountered the same user conduct issues in the same general topic area I had, and appreciated that someone was saying the things you were afraid to. (This was definitely the case with some previous instances.) But after your thanking me for clarifying for Curly Turkey's benefit what the Japanese Jewish Common Ancestry theory was and what the reference to upside-down crucifixion was referring to, I realized that you probably hadn't meant anything in particular by it. Please be a bit more conservative with your "thank"s going forward. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 04:25, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

thank you

just wanted to send a kind word for your response to my talk page comment pertaining to the Mickey Jones page. always appreciate kindness on this website. CanoeUnlined (talk) 02:24, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

@CanoeUnlined: looks like i can't thank everyone for their contributions, so i appreciate this last input as an inspiration for wikipedia.-🐦Do☭torWho42 (⭐) 02:26, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
